Horoscopes

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, Jan. 2, 2018: This year you often reach out to others. Social relationships score high on your list of priorities. You have a sixth sense that helps you understand what is about to happen. If you are single, tap into this intuitive ability when choosing whom to date. Potential suitors can’t seem to stay away from you. If you are attached, be smart and dote on your sweetie. You might be going through a lot, but understand that your significant other will have his or her hands full adjusting to you. Cancer might be challenging to deal with.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

In your mind, you could be wondering if today and yesterday are representative of the rest of 2018. Some of you might feel as if you have been shot out of a cannon. Uproar at home keeps your focus on the domestic scene. You’ll desire some peace and quiet.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You observe more than others seem to realize. In fact, you don’t miss much because of your keen perceptions. You typically are non-judgmental; however, that might not be the case right now. A loved one comes toward you with good news.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

You might be forced to deal with your finances. Opportunities break through the haze of wondering what to do. You’ll want to check out a risk carefully; you don’t want to feel as if you are walking the plank! Be sure you can handle any snafus.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You will want to open up to someone else, but this person might seem somewhat distant at the moment. Know when to take a detour and avoid a collision of wills. Your creativity surges and allows many more options to appear than you originally had envisioned. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You have a lot on your mind, but will choose not to share it just yet. Your fiery energy allows you greater flexibility than usual. You seem unusually resourceful, but might need some time in meditation to think through a decision carefully.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Just when you thought that most of the holiday energy had dissipated, you find out otherwise. Your words do count. You’ll feel liberated once you clear the air with a loved one. You might not have anticipated the reaction you get.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Tension builds to unprecedented levels. You might feel as if you are finally in control. Remember this feeling, as at any moment a surprise could throw your plans into chaos. Learn to work with the unexpected.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Your intensity has not lessened, but your good humour seems more present than usual. Allow yourself to follow through on a dream, as it can be accomplished far more easily than you had imagined.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You could be in the mood to retreat from the holiday atmosphere and add some calmness to your day. This sounds like a great idea, but making it happen could be nearly impossible.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Defer to others for the moment. A group of friends might be more beneficial to you than you are aware. Your perspective could be changing without you even realizing it. A family member is likely to be reactive.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Pace yourself, and get down to basics. You can do only so much. Fatigue marks your day and your plans. You have a lot of ground to cover, and many people to see. You could experience an adrenalin rush because of an unexpected event.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Your creativity surges, and you seem to be able to bypass many problems that arise. You will find unusual solutions. News from someone whose expertise you respect will put a smile on your face. Recognize that you are unstoppable.
